Choose individually wrapped mini stroopwafels if you want to hand out one waffle at a time at weekend breakfast and keep the remaining portions sealed. A twin pack is a good fit if you want two waffles at a time. If you’re eating with several people, you could also consider a larger pack, but check the inner packaging and storage instructions.
If you don’t serve all the waffles at once over weekend breakfast, individually wrapped mini stroopwafels may be worth considering. Jumbo explicitly says that its Mini Stroopwafeltjes are individually wrapped.
If two waffles make the right portion, consider twin packs. PLUS lists eight wrappers in its Daelmans Duopack; Jumbo describes Kanjers Original Stroopwafels as 4 x 2 pieces.
If you need to watch out for specific ingredients, the current label matters more than the pack format. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority explains how allergens are shown on labels; PLUS lists wheat, soya and milk among the ingredients in its caramel stroopwafels.
First decide how many waffles you want to open at a time. Then check the ingredients for everyone eating and choose a pack size that suits your breakfast gathering.
| What to consider | What should you check? | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Keeping portions separate | Look for an explicit statement that they are ‘individually wrapped’, or check how many waffles are in each wrapper. | If I hand out one waffle, I want to be able to keep the remaining portions sealed. Around 45% of consumers would prioritise keeping portions separate. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the current label on the pack and check the ingredients and allergens relevant to those eating. | When I’m preparing breakfast for others, I want to know what ingredients the waffles contain before serving them. Around 33% of consumers would make this their main consideration. |
| Quantity for your group | Compare the number of waffles and individual portions with how many you want to serve at breakfast. | If we’re eating the waffles together, I mainly want to choose a quantity that suits us. For around 22% of consumers, this would be the most important consideration. |
A piece count or the word ‘mini’ doesn’t tell you how many waffles are in each inner wrapper. That matters if you want to keep portions sealed.
Before buying, check the packaging or product page for ‘individually wrapped’, ‘twin pack’ or a clear breakdown such as ‘4 x 2’.
The wrapper doesn’t change the ingredients. PLUS lists wheat, soya and milk among the ingredients in its caramel stroopwafels.
Before eating, check the ingredients and allergen information on the current packaging, even if you’ve already looked at the online product description.
Worth considering if you’re looking for two stroopwafels per wrapper: PLUS lists eight wrappers in the Daelmans Duopack.
Jumbo lists the Original Stroopwafels as 4 x 2 pieces, 320 g.
Jumbo’s own-brand Mini Stroopwafeltjes come in an 18 x 8 g pack and are individually wrapped, according to the retailer.
PLUS lists a 10-piece pack of its own-brand caramel stroopwafels and provides ingredients and allergen information.
ALDI lists Biscotto Mini stroopwafels in a 300 g pack.
Lidl lists Sondey Mini butter stroopwafels in a 316 g pack, with around 37 pieces.
These Kanjers stroopwafels are worth considering if you want to keep portions separate for weekend breakfast. For both options, check how many waffles are in each inner pack: the quantities in the product titles refer to the total number of pieces.

If you’re having breakfast with several people, you could consider the 10-piece pack. If you want to hand out individual waffles and keep the rest sealed, check the inner packaging and read the current ingredients and allergen label before eating.

If you want to serve two waffles at a time, check whether this 8-piece option is actually packed in pairs. If you want one waffle at a time, opening a twin pack means opening the second waffle too. Remember to read the current ingredients and allergen label as well.
No. A multipack doesn’t automatically tell you how the waffles are divided inside. Jumbo explicitly says that its Mini Stroopwafeltjes are ‘individually wrapped’; for other products, look for equally clear wording on the current packaging.
No. Check the best-before date and the storage instructions on the relevant packaging. An individual wrapper doesn’t, by itself, indicate a longer shelf life.
Check the current label on the product you’ve chosen for any allergens relevant to those eating. PLUS lists wheat, soya, milk and lactose among the ingredients in its caramel stroopwafels; another variety may have a different composition.
